On this Halloween edition of SportsBeat KC, the masks come on for some of the members of The Star’s A-Team of Vahe Gregorian, Herbie Teope, Sam Mellinger and Sam McDowell, along with host Blair Kerkhoff.

And the Chiefs’ game Sunday against the winless New York Jets could become a frightening matter of its own.

In this holiday episode of The Star’s daily sports podcast, the group covers several topics, from Eric Bieniemy’s prospects of becoming the Jets’ next head coach, to Le’Veon Bell’s incentive to have a big game against his former teammates, and Travis Kelce’s comments from earlier in the week when he said he likes playing the team’s “plumber or electrician” role.

Also, everyone has a Halloween costume story, some filled with more distress than others.
